While I don't necessarily agree with 1-4, Wanted was right where it should be: at the very bottom.

So The Dark Knight Returns and The Killing Joke aren't comic books? Watchmen isn't a comic book?

Watchmen, as originally printed, was a 12 issue mini-comic series yes, but now its a graphic Novel.

GN does not = Comic book.

Graphic Novels do indeed equal comic books.

Let's see, comic book artists, comic book writers, pictures AND text written together like a comic book.

That would certainly not make it a regular novel.

Exactly. The term "Graphic Novel" is just the highbrow nerd word for "Comic Book".

They're trying to somehow elevate it above just the average comic book.

Dark Knight Returns was originally a series of comics, later put into graphic novel format.
